We discuss bounds on the distribution and fragmentation functions that appear at leading order in deep inelastic 1-particle inclusive leptoproduction or in Drell-Yan processes. These bounds simply follow from positivity of the quark-hadron scattering matrix elements and are an important guide in estimating the magnitude of the azimuthal and spin asymmetries in these processes. We focus on an example relevant for deep inelastic scattering at relatively low energies.
